[SB57VXR]

hello guys, ive got a problem with my astra VXR.
with the sport button truned on, when if 3rd and changing up to 4th put my foot down and the warning light with the spanner came up and i had a limp home mode come on i guess, i then truned the car off for abit and the light went out, same thing about 100mph foot down light back on, booked it with vauxhall but not thinking they are going to be much help,
has anyone had this before????

100mph and putting your foot down? I hope you were on your private runway

what the fault codes??? you try it when it was cold? as it will go in to limp mode.
plugs could be on its way out, or you got boost problem

the A3 is a runway right?? the engine was warm when i did it yes, just had a new turbo fitted by vux dealer but it hasnt happened before, i had done the same since the turbo with no problem, i got keyless so not sure how to check the faults? i was also thinking boost but my mate did see a black smoke from it, so could be plugs,

could be a naf turbo, or not setup right.

people had problems before because acutator wasnt setup right. you need to check the codes

ill give it a drive and see what happens, i can get the faults after, and u clear the faults that way too or is that a hard reset (battery off) ?
